Rhino Releasing Expanded Versions of Two 70's Rod Stewart Albums
In the mid-70's, Rod Stewart was making the transition from Rock star with the Faces and his own solo work, to a more mainstream pop sound. The two albums that highlighted that transition, Atlantic Crossing and A Night on the Town, are being reissued by Rhino Records on June 30 as two-CD Collector's Editions.
1975's Atlantic Crossing marked Stewart's first U.S. recorded music and he took full advantage by recording parts of the album in Muscle Shoals using soul producer Tom Dowd and a number of the best soul session musicians. The tracks were divided by side on the original vinyl LP with the fast half (side) featuring Stone Cold Sober and Three Time Loser while the slow half contained the two hits from the album, Sailing and I Don't Want to Talk About It plus the original version of the Isley Brothers' This Old Heart of Mine which he rerecorded later in his career with Ron Isley.
The two-CD set has the newly remastered version of the album on the first disc plus an unreleased instrumental while the second disc has alternate versions of all the tracks on the album along with covers of Bee Gees, Lee Dorsey and Elvis Presley tunes.

Drive-By Truckers - Two New Releases
Drive-By Truckers (DBT) have been together making music for 13 years. The time has been well spent and has resulted in 7 critically acclaimed studio albums which couldn't possibly contain all of the songs the band has written. So, DBT recently dug into the New West Records vaults, and with guidance from longtime producer Dave Barbe, put the finishing touches on a group of songs that were never completed. “For me, it’s been a fun stroll through memory lane and a chance to tie up some loose ends,” says Patterson Hood. The result of the collaboration is the new, Drive-By Truckers, The Fine Print (A Collection Of Oddities and Rarities 2003-2008), a 12-track album of previously unreleased and rare songs, due out on September 1, 2009. Also out this summer from New West, will be the Drive-By Trucker’s entire Austin City Limits performance as a CD / DVD set as a part of the Live From Austin, TX line (order the Austin City Limits release below thru MNN).
The Fine Print (A Collection Of Oddities and Rarities 2003-2008) features songs written by band members past and present, including Patterson Hood, Mike Cooley and Jason Isbell. Seven of the twelve songs come from The Dirty South era. Drive-By Truckers were on the Austin City Limits stage on September 26, 2008 while they toured for their last studio album, Brighter Than Creations Dark. A CD/DVD combination package with the entire performance will be released July 7th, 2009. The 13 songs, which were filmed in Hi-Def and recorded in 5.1 Surround Sound for the acclaimed PBS show, include a mix of new songs
